My plan exactly. I want to look over you're
installation in exchange for lunch.

Hmmm. any idea on the firewall forward weight? Whats
the standard stock engine for you're plane?
How much could you loose with a carbon fiber
cowl?
> Cars have intercoolers
Right. My input says that an intercooler is essential.
Perhaps you don't need it at altitude, but you do at sea level. Maybe you should
make a bump, add a P51 intake on you're cowl and install one.

3rd gens, running 10 psi of boost blow up all the time.
Not at 6000 rpm they don't. Most get blown at much
higher rpms and with sudden torque
changes.

tank of regular
Excuse me? I've always used regular in my Saab turbo. I
think most NA 3B drivers run regular. Are you saying high test is essential for
a turbo?

= well fed
intercooler.

What answer do you get from
